Abstract
In some embodiments of the present disclosure, a method of manufacturing a semiconductor structure includes the following operations. A substrate including a first atom and a second atom is provided. An etchant is dispatched from an ionizer. A compound is formed over the substrate by bonding the first atom with the etchant. A particle is released from an implanter. The compound is removed by bombarding the compound with the particle having an energy smaller than a bonding energy between the first atom and the second atom, wherein the particle is different from the etchant.
